Accessibility Statement
Our Commitment to Accessibility
At KindlyFundMe, we believe that giving should be for everyone. That’s why we’re committed to improving the accessibility of our website for all users. We strive to ensure that our features work seamlessly across a wide range of technologies, whether you’re using a tablet, mobile phone, laptop, or desktop computer.
Key Standards and Guidelines
Accessibility is a priority for us. We integrate accessibility standards into every stage of our research, design, and development processes for new online products and services. Here are some of the key accessibility standards we aim to follow:
- We aim to achieve Level AA compliance with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.
Supported Browsers
We strive to provide a consistent and accessible experience across all major browsers. Our website is designed to display and function properly on the following supported browsers:
- Firefox
- Chrome
- Safari
- Edge
Current Exceptions
Some older areas of our platform were designed and built with the goal of achieving Level A compliance with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0). We are actively working to update these areas to meet Level AA compliance under WCAG 2.1.
Third-Party Content
While we make every effort to ensure that our web-based products are accessible to a wide range of users, we do not control all content on our website. This includes content managed by fundraisers, charities, and companies using our platform. As a result, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of all third-party content.
Tools for Accessing Content
We provide several tools and features to help you access and navigate our website more easily:
Navigation Shortcuts
At the beginning of every page, there is a short menu that allows screen reader users to jump directly to the most important sections of the page, such as the main content and navigation. We hope this makes it easier for you to find what you need with minimal effort.
Changing Font Size
Most browsers allow you to resize text on the screen to a size that is comfortable for you. Here’s how you can adjust the text size in popular browsers:
- Edge: From the ‘…’ menu, select Zoom + or Zoom - as needed.
- Firefox: Select View > Zoom, then choose Zoom In or Zoom Out.
- Chrome: Click on the Settings icon and select Zoom In or Zoom Out.
- Safari (Mac): Select View > Zoom, then choose Zoom In or Zoom Out.
Contrast
We carefully design our website to ensure sufficient color contrast for readability. In cases where third-party users choose their own colors, we make efforts to ensure adequate contrast—for example, by adjusting overlaid text from white to black (or vice versa). If you encounter any color combinations that are difficult to read, please let us know.
Links
We work hard to ensure that all link names are distinct and not repeated on pages, making it easier for users to navigate our website.
Feedback
Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve the accessibility and usability of our website. If you encounter any difficulties accessing content on KindlyFundMe, or if you have suggestions for how we can improve, please
